The critical date is 8 July. We cannot continue to meet on a regular basis but I would like the committee to receive an updated snapshot, given only four weeks remain, to give us a sense of what is happening. This is not for our entertainment. People engage with us on a continuous basis and we want to be in a position to assure them, as the representatives are endeavouring to assure us, although not as successfully as they might like. Let us help each other with this. If they could provide the clerk to the committee with an update in order that members can be informed about where we are at as we approach the remaining four weeks leading up to 8 July, that would be helpful.
